Local polynomial regression of order one or higher often performs poorly in areas with sparse data. In contrast, local constant regression tends to be more robust in these regions, although it is generally the least accurate approach,…
Penalized regression methods, such as $L_1$ regularization, are routinely used in high-dimensional applications, and there is a rich literature on optimality properties under sparsity assumptions. In the Bayesian paradigm, sparsity is…

We introduce a new approach to prediction in graphical models with latent-shift adaptation, i.e., where source and target environments differ in the distribution of an unobserved confounding latent variable. Previous work has shown that as…
